The Panamanian golden frog is a bright yellow-gold toad that lives only in Panama. It sits on the mountain streams and cloud forests of the west-central part of the country. It is a national symbol, and it is also one of the most endangered amphibians in the world.1

Siyatyhefa okanye sinetyhefu? Izilwanyana ezinetyhefu zitofa ityhefu ngokuluma okanye ngokuhlaba. Izilwanyana ezityhefayo ziyingozi xa uzichukumisa okanye uzitya. Esi siyatyhefa.

Sihlala

Endemic to Panama, near mountain streams in Coclé and Panamá provinces1

Ekhaya

It lives close to mountain streams in cloud forests. Adult males stay near the streams where breeding happens, while females move into the forest outside the breeding season. Adult males perch in trees at night.1

Sitya ntoni?

Indlela yokusiqaphela

Skin colour ranges from light yellow-green to bright gold.1
Some individuals have black spots on their backs and legs.1
Females are larger than males, at 45 to 63 mm long, while males are 35 to 48 mm.1
Adults wave and lift a foot at predators, showing their bright colours.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

Ityhefu yaso etyhefayo (xa usichukumisa okanye usitya) yenza ntoni?

It is poisonous rather than venomous, because its toxins work on contact with the skin and are not injected. The toxin is water-soluble and affects the nerve cells of anyone who touches it. Large doses can be fatal within 20 to 30 minutes, after convulsions that stop breathing and blood circulation.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: Kubi kakhuluUkuba umntu uyasichukumisa okanye uyasitya, yiya kugqirha. Ukufa kunqabe kakhulu.

Its toxin affects the nerve cells of anyone who comes into contact with it, and large doses can be fatal. Because it is critically endangered, the frog should be left alone in the wild.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

When a predator approaches, it waves and lifts its foot to show its bright colours, which warn of its toxicity. If the predator keeps coming, the waving and calls increase in speed and volume.1

Ukuba umntu usichukumisile okanye usityile

Ukuba umntu usichukumisile: hlamba izandla kakuhle kwaye ungachukumisi amehlo okanye umlomo. Ukuba umntwana okanye isilwanyana sasekhaya sisikhothile okanye sisityile: tsalela iziko lezityhefu okanye inombolo kaxakeka.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba usichukumisile okanye usityile: musa ukukhuhla amehlo okanye umlomo wakho, hlamba izandla zakho kwaye ufumane uncedo lwezonyango.

Asikuzingeli. Ityhefu yaso ikhona nje ukuze kungabikho nto isityayo. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

kufanelekile ukwazi

Iinyaniso

It is able to communicate by waving its feet, a bit like semaphore, as well as by sound.1

It is an 'earless' frog with no eardrums, yet it can still hear sounds and work out where they come from.1

Its toxins are powerful enough that some predators avoid it, though a few snakes can cope with its poison.1

Tadpoles have black and gold colouring, which helps protect them from the sun.1

It was filmed in the wild for the last time in 2006 for the BBC series Life in Cold Blood.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Inyaniso: Despite its common name, it is a true toad, a member of the family Bufonidae.1
